Connection State Problem

MDK101

Hello Community,

While we are trying to move our setup from centos to ubuntu as host vm, together with docker setup, we are trying to solve the folloing error:

Connection State:   Down (Local SSL handshake failed: Server certificate verification failed: path length constraint exceeded solace

That message is shown on an edge broker, trying to connect to core.

Are there any solutions?

Thank you.

Hi Marc,

thanks for your answer. Our Problem was caused by an incorrect cert chain of trust, which has been enforced as enabled setting by most recent solace pub sub broker software versions (somewhere after 9.12.0.17 )

Kind regards.

Hi @MDK101,

Can you elaborate some more on this? Is this the connection state of a static VPN bridge from one broker to another? or sonmething else? And how many levels are in your certificates? I see this in the docs under Managing Server Certs

The single server certificate file set for the event broker can have a maximum chain depth of three (that is, the single certificate file can contain up to three certificates in a chain that can be used for the certificate verification).
